Chapter 32 Special Operations Forces
April 27, 5th year of the federal calendar
We spent a total of three days in the Underworld, helping the Rolanders clean the Eye of Reye and the surrounding area of monsters. Subsequently, Dieh sent some warriors to spread the news of the city's safety, hoping to gather the surviving Roland people from all over the country.
We spent most of the rest of our time in the temple, and even with our consent, he selected twenty bright young men from among the Rolanders to attend the lecture in the temple.
The harvest brought to us in these three days was unexpectedly rich, in addition to a few players, there was actually a Roland man who comprehended the power of runes. The girl's name is Liye, she is just fifteen years old this year, and she is an out-and-out genius. For this child, Yuan Ya liked it very much, and finally accepted her as a disciple.
Aside from the Divine Language-Bai that I had comprehended at the beginning, I didn't have any more epiphany in the following time, which seemed to further prove the relationship between runes and my swordsmanship realm. I even considered whether I should collect some other swordsmanship to learn.
I quickly dispelled that thought, and after seeing Bing Yu's sword in the illusion that day, I realized that my attainments in the Frost Blade Flow were still very shallow, and it would not do me any good to learn something else.
When we returned to Eagle City on the morning of the 16th, we first received bad news.
Obviously, Flying Eagle City is not the only city that has been attacked by monsters, and Shengyan has received a large number of requests for help from all over the world in recent days. In desperation, he rode a flying eagle and rushed to Lion Proud City to discuss a solution with the lord Duke Liao. Eventually, the Duke abandoned the remaining five cities in his jurisdiction and decided to concentrate all his efforts on three larger cities, namely Lion Proud City, Flying Eagle City, and Red Water City.
After receiving the duke's clear order, Shengyan and Yi Qi each set off with an elite army to the nearby Jade Sword City and Xilu City to collect the defeated troops and fleeing residents.
Therefore, when the last monster army arrived in Eagle City that afternoon, the only people who defended the city were the player group, the Holy Spear, the Jinzhen Tribe, a small number of city guards, and the Chamber of Commerce private soldiers led by Cinta in total, just over two hundred people.
This battle became an opportunity for players to show their strength, especially Qi Xin and other people who had greatly increased their strength after learning the Divine Language, and they relied on their rich combat experience to lead the troops to kill monsters and abandon their armor.
After solving the monster threat, Eagle City became even busier. Flying Eagle City, which already has a population of 140,000, has successively accepted nearly 30,000 refugees from the surrounding area, and in order to settle these new populations, Shengyan and others are almost busy. Fortunately, there is a lot of grain storage in the city, and the farmland outside the city has not been destroyed too much by monsters. Rao is so, and the plan to open up new fields is also on the agenda.
These things don't have much to do with the player, so we don't have to worry about it. During this period, players enter the underground world in batches, in addition to learning runes and assisting the Roland people in rebuilding the Eye of Leiye, they will also cooperate with the small number of Roland troops that have regrouped to clean up monsters in the farther area.
Moon Min intends to develop the underground world into the rear of the players, and now there are thousands of Roland survivors gathered and they have a lot of respect for the players, which is indeed an opportunity we cannot miss.
With the exception of the players who are busy in the underworld, the rest of us are not idle, and with the commissions we have earned recently, we have embarked on a major renovation of the station, intending to bring it out of its original dismal appearance in a few months.
It is said that Yuemin is still thinking of a few other plans, but they don't have much to do with me, so I have no interest in getting involved.
To this day, a panting warrior came to the Dawnwatch station and asked us to go to the town hall to meet Shengyan.
……
A total of five people were present at this meeting, in addition to Shengyan, Duqi, and Yuemin, there was also a person that Duqi was very familiar with, and it was Hanekawa, the little brother he met in the black pine forest. This time, he's here to deliver urgent news.
After listening to Hanekawa's brief description, everyone roughly understood the current situation. It is said that a large army of monsters has appeared in the north, and the army of the Duke of Shanjun has been completely defeated, and the remnants of the army have retreated to Miao Yu City, and will arrive in Shiguan City in a few days. The king sent an order asking Duke Liao and Duke Huyue to lead their troops north to assist the national capital in the battle against the monster army.
"The current situation in Flying Cinema City is like this, some time ago we integrated the remnants of several nearby cities, and the city guards increased to more than seven hundred people, excluding the necessary military strength to defend the city, Flying Eagle City can probably send an army of 300 people. I think the Chishui City side is similar, and the Duke's Lion Proud City is more numerous, about 400 people. In other words, the two dukes can probably support more than 2,000 soldiers, and there are about 3,000 people on the side of Shiguan City plus the remnants of the Duke of Shanjun. Sheng Yan briefly described the current situation, "Of course, this has nothing to do with our meeting. Duke Liao had an idea, he wanted to create a temporary special force, not too many people, but each member of the team must be very strong and can play a special role in the battlefield. So...... I thought of you. ”
"Father has received news from His Majesty, as long as you can send a team to support, the commission will be very generous, and you can be given a larger station in Stone Crown City like Flying Eagle City." Hanekawa continued.
It was only then that Du Qi learned that Hanekawa's father, Yueqi, was the lord of the Eight Cities in the South, Duke Liao. It's no wonder that he realized it later, it's just that Hanekawa never mentioned his clan name, how could he know about the relationship between the two?
"Personally, I like this kind of thing, but I can't call the shots of other people. Brother Yuemin, what do you think? "Although Du Qi is very familiar with the two people present in the Rocky Kingdom, he is not good at handling this aspect of affairs after all.
"How many people do you need for this special unit? Is there a list of participants at the moment? Yuemin asked.
"In the defense of the city a few days ago, there were more than a dozen people who left a very deep impression on me. Of course, we don't need that many people, and the number of people in this special unit is about 20, so I hope to have about five people join the plan. As for the list, I can only tell you that I, Hanekawa, and my three disciples will all be members. ”
"Five people? A little bit more! Yuemin lowered her head and thought about it. At present, the layout of the players is becoming more and more grandiose, the underground world and the station in the Flying Eagle City are in full swing, and several other plans to be implemented will also require a lot of manpower, but the number of players is only 86 after all. Jin Zhen may also be a reliable helper, but at present, Yue Min is still investigating them, and he cannot be a helper for the time being. If a few main combat forces were withdrawn at this time, it would cause a lot of obstacles to his plan.
But on the other hand, the proposal of the Rocky Kingdom is also very attractive. At present, Du Qi still has a teleportation stone circle in his hands, and if it is placed in Stone Crown City, the player's range of activities will be increased several times, and the ability to obtain information will also be greatly enhanced. In addition to this, Yue Min values the relationship between the two sides more and the Holy One Sect has always been a lingering concern for him, although all parties are currently plagued by the problem of monsters, and the strength of the player is gradually rising, a strong ally is still essential.
"Among the players, Du Qi is the most familiar with the teleportation array, and he has a good relationship with Shengyan and Hanekawa, and this guy's luck is amazing, you can consider it. If Du Qi leaves, then Qi Xin and Xia Ying must stay, and they are both better than me in leading the team to fight. Since it is a squad operation, you can consider letting Kui Qu go with Du Qi. Well...... Yuan Ya is proficient in runes, and can assist Du Qi in a crisis situation, which is also a good choice. However, the personalities of these three people are a little simple, and they need a more calm person to accompany them, so let Xiao Fu go with them. In this way, the rune master went to two, and Lixi had to stay......" Yue Min went through the list of the best players at the moment, and finally selected four people.
"I thought about it, we can have four people on our side." He asked, "Duzi can be one of them, and I need to ask their personal opinions for the rest of the three." So, what time is it going to go? ”
"Okay, four people are enough!" Shengyan was overjoyed, "Set off at seven o'clock in the morning, we will rush to the royal capital first, and we will not go with the large army." ”
